[Verse]
C# F#
He took my knapsack just inside the revolving door
C# G#
It was a bookstore where I'd never been before
C# F#
I wasn't looking for anything more than a book
C# G#
But I looked, isn't that what eyes are for
C# F#
Studied biographies, I checked out the magazines
C# G#
My mind kept leading me back to his face
C# F#
I'd seen something about him that made me feel 17
C# G#
Stop, so I'm not, isn't that what minds are for
[Chorus]
G#
Now every day I can't wait to see him
F# C#
I'm gonna ask his name
G#
But every day I hand him my bag and
F# G#
Everything remains the same
[Verse]
C# F#
He took my knapsack and his fingers brushed my wrist
C# G#
Gave me a number but it wasn't even his
C# F#
I crossed another novel off of my reading list
C# G#
Wished to be kissed isn't that what lips are for
C# F#
Thinking about him when I'm on my way to work
C# G#
All these men in suits they look too perfect
C# F#
And I want to tell him I'm not just some soulless jerk
C# G#
Hey, I got a band I understand what life is for
[Chorus]
G#
Now every day I can't wait to see him
F# C#
I'm gonna ask his name
G#
But every day I hand him my bag and
F# C#
Everything remains the same
[Verse]
C# F#
He took my knapsack just inside the revolving door
C# G#
Wanted to tell him that I can't see him anymore
C# F#
Got a new job in a different part of town
C# G#
Fired and rehired isn't that what work is for
C# F#
He smiled right at me but I couldn't meet his eye
C# G#
All I could look at was the palm tree on his tie
C# F#
I'll think about him when I go to bed at night
C# G#
Deep in my sleep isn't that what dreams are for
[Outro]
C# F#
He took my knapsack just inside the revolving door
C# F#
He took my knapsack just inside the revolving door
C# F# C#
He took my knapsack
